Thanks!
The drop off point is next to the Geneva airport. It's very tricky to find, both Google Maps and the BMW Nav had trouble finding the location. It takes you to the general area but it's very difficult to find the entry to the complex for the drop off company.

I took the train back to central Geneva where I was staying. The airport train station is about a 10 minute walk from the drop off point.

Also, another caution is the email address on the euro documentation for the Geneva drop off point is a unmanned email address. I had to call them and get the correct address. But everyone at that office is very friendly, they didn't care my car had a bunch of bugs on it and was dirty. I wanted to wash it but ran into a delay earlier in the day.

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Just got mine last night! Well worth the wait. I haven't been this excited in a long time. So glad I went with the MT.

My CA is "hopeful" it gets here by Friday. I'm hoping for Thursday or Friday, as I'm off both days.

Probably not on the Titania, as she is due in Tacoma today. She left Bremerhaven a month ago.
Search WW Logistics page to find routes & use the last 7 of your VIN to see if you're on a particular ship.

I still have the option of converting my M2, entering production shortly, into a ED car, however the timing of the trip would be very inconvenient for me and I already have a trip planned to Europe in late April, whose timing is dictated by a family wedding I will be attending. I've been told that BMW won't hold my completed car for 2 months awaiting my pickup, so this is unlikely to happen. Also, rejiggering my trip to include a Munich pickup will entail quite a bit of expense, probably wiping out most of the 5% savings from ED. And, I've been to Munich and Germany 2 or 3 times before, so the excitement of discovery wouldn't be there, for me.

Notwithstanding any of this, reading threads on this board pointing to 3 month plus transit times after ED, and the potential for damage that might not be easily covered once the car arrives, has really soured me to even considering this option any further.

Thanks for posting all of your experiences!
